Pilot Creates Delay To Avoid Wake Turbulence

What would happen if, with planes lined up to take off, one pilot determines that air traffic control did not allow enough time for the previous departure wake turbulence to dissipate and he intentionally dilly dallies on his own takeoff, perhaps filling the 15 or so seconds with a little banter on the subject with ATC.
